I am such a summer fan. Yes, I love every season, but summer never fails to steal my heart. So when we enter that inevitable transition into fall, I find myself clinging on to any warm weather activity with all my might. This little camping getaway captured by Johnny Cheng Photography and styled by Megan Elliott is the perfect way to do just that, and it is sooo up my...

You know what's better than a gorgeous dose of Old Hollywood-inspired pretty? A gorgeous dose of Old Hollywood-inspired pretty with a decidedly modern twist. One that takes all of that glamour and sophistication we know and love and ties it all up in a pretty bow made with succulent-filled florals from Village Green Florist, a glittery gold masterpiece from ...
When you hear the word calligraphy, I bet most of you envision a beautifully addressed envelope. Trust us, we love a pretty envelope! But we're kind of loving the gorgeously creative ways that couples are working with their vendors to really personalize their weddings, with calligraphy and custom lettering. In spirit of that, we've put together a pretty little round up of some of the loveliest...
Southern weddings are the cream to my coffee. The sweet spot in my hectic days. And when it happens to be the most darling minty pink "I do" captured through the lens of Katelyn James? Even better. Tack on planning from Amore Events by Cody with floral pretties...
French country inspired events always hold that little bit of something special that I can never quite put my finger on. Perhaps it's the worn linens, the casual approach to fabulous food or the sweet yet simple details, but this is one luncheon that I'm sad to have missed. It turns out, when you pair Valley & Co. with Dennis Wise great things are...
One of my favorite things in the whole wide world is getting to see a couple's wedding planning period unfold on the screens of SMP. Take this couple for instance, it seems like only yesterday we were swooning over their engagement session, and now we get to devour every last gorgeous detail of their big day. It just makes my heart so happy, and I...
Here's what I know. This affair captured perfectly by Isabelle Selby is the epitome of drop-dead gorgeous (it sooo is) and there's no place quite like the always-fabulous NYC for some sophisticated meets elegant Winter wedding magic. Because New York City? Well, it's the kind of city that just screams "Winter chic" and for these two dapper grooms, there was just no better (or more romantic) locale to...
We think of all you pretties out there as friends. We may or may not feel like your virtual bridesmaids. So when we hear of an event right in your backyard that would be a crime to miss, we make sure you know about it. It's part of our virtual bridesmaid duty. That's why we are pulling out the stops to make sure Project Fashion hosted by the lovelies at...
For as endlessly pretty as the images from Lane Dittoe's camera always are, I'm positive that Lane has finally met his match in this wedding. And do you know what pretty meets pretty looks like? It looks just like this Santa Barbara affair heavy on the sunshine and natural beauty with vendors like Cody Floral Design and ...
Truth be told, I'm not much of a steak eater. But when I do indulge, I indulge hard and I make sure to do it right. Sauteed mushrooms, a pad of butter, medium rare and straight off the grill (kind of making myself hungry here)... It never really occurred to me that there was any other way to do it. But after drooling over Kevin &...
Some days, you just need a warm atmosphere where smiles and laughter abound. They warm you right up and put a grin on your face - and not to mention, give your Pinning fingers some exercise. Unity Weddings put together a beautiful soiree on a lake for this couple, complete with DIY milk glass vases (!!!) and Micheal B. Photography has...
Don't get me wrong, I'm a sucker for great wedding details. But when a vow renewal this special comes along, I'm completely and totally reminded of what really matters -- the couple, the stories, the love. And thanks to the incredible angels behind Wish Upon a Wedding, Sarah, battling stage 4 breast cancer, and Colin, serving in the military, were able to mark their 10th anniversary with the celebration it SO deserved. Spend some...

And lucky for you California brides, this weekend (September 13-15) the ...
This is the kind of wedding you just sink into. The sort of wedding where every last moment is soooo utterly beautiful and soooo incredibly mesmerizing, you just can't help but stop and stare. It's a day that is overflowing with pretty, from the gorgeous florals from Hannah Etherington Flowers to the fabulous paper goods from ...
There may be nothing cuter in the whole world than an adorably dressed flower girl walking down the aisle. Unless, of course, that little one is donning a Sweet Bzz & Daisies creation! These one of a kind, heirloom-quality girls' dresses are crafted from luxe fabrics like dupioni silk and silk brocade featuring incredibly detailed hand embroidery! See a few of the incredible designs below, but be sure to pop over to the full...
People always ask me what really makes a wedding shine on SMP. My answer is always soul. When a wedding has so much heart you can feel it through the computer screen, that's when I know it will resonate with everyone that passes by the pages of SMP today. This wedding from Photography by Katy Carlson has soul and then some, and it only takes one look at...
Summer may be officially winding down (just a couple of more weeks!), but if it's alright with you, we here at Style Me Pretty would like to bask in its glory just a tad bit longer. And by "basking in its glory," I mean soaking in every last moment of this sweet inspiration shoot from Mango Studios, aka, a serious love-fest with vibrant florals from ...
I love this Bride. Of course, I love her Groom too - but this Bride is the kind of girl who just sparkles without even trying. A girl who whips up an absolutely lovely affair as if it's second nature. She is adorable and gorgeous and talented - and her wedding captured by Abi Q Photography reflects just that. See the entire day here.
It seems almost crazy to say it, but I've never actually been to Mexico. Sure, I've been close... I frequent San Diego often and have even spotted it's beautiful beaches from a whale watching boat, but I've never actually stepped foot on those golden sands and soaked in those paradise-like rays of sun. I know, I know. It's something that needs to be rectified sooner rather than later, especially since I spend my days soaking in beautiful weddings like this breathtaking Playa del Carmen...
New England barn weddings are special. They are cozy and charming, elegant and casual all in the same breath. This pretty at The Barn At Gibbet Hill is the perfect example of why such a soiree will never grown old. Every image from Julie Surette Photography makes me fall in love with barn weddings all over again, and you can see why...
